STEP 1- PREPARE THE MANGO PURÉE
Wash, pat dry, and cut mangoes in half.

Scoop out the pulp from the mangoes and scrape the pulp off the seed too. Transfer it to a blender.

Blend the pulp until smooth.

Pour the puréed mango through a wire mesh strainer. Set aside.

STEP 2- BAKE THE MANGO CAKE
Preheat oven at 330 degrees F.
Combine buttermilk, oil, mango essence, and sugar in a mixing bowl. Whisk until blended.

Stir in all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Mix to combine.

Mix the dry ingredients until just combined.

Pour in ¾ cups of mango puree (that was prepared earlier).

Mix to combine.

Grease 2 6-inch round baking springform pans.

Pour the mango cake batter in the greased pans. Tap the pans against your countertop two to three times to get rid of air bubbles.

Transfer the cake pans to the preheated oven and bake at 330 degrees F for 45-50 minutes. Before removing, do the toothpick test. Insert a toothpick in the center of the cake; if it comes out clean, the cake is done.

Remove from oven and allow the eggless mango cake to cool for 10-12 minutes in pan.

STEP 3- ASSEMBLE THE EGGLESS MANGO CAKE

When ready to assemble, remove the cake from the springform pan.

Gently lift the cake and remove the bottom tray. 

Using a sharp knife slices the cake horizontally into 2 halves. Now we have 4 half slices of an eggless mango cake. 

Take two halves – spread mango purée over the crumb part.

Take the other two halves – layer it with whipped cream frosting. 

Invert the whipped cream frosted layer (upside down) on top of the mango layer. Gently press it down. Repeat the same with the other layer. Now we have two mango-whipped cream frosted cake sandwiches. 

Apply a whipped cream frosting in between and stack the cake on top of each other. Now that we have stacked up both all the layers, it’s time to dress our eggless mango cake (frost it).  

Gather some whipped cream frosting on the spatula and apply a thin layer of frosting to the top and sides of the cake with a spatula. Smoothen it out and cover the entire cake. 

Transfer the eggless frosted cake to the refrigerator and chill for about 10-15 minutes.

Pipe a star design all around the top and side of your cake. Add a fun touch by placing some mango scoops on the top.
